So I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question but I was trying to get started again on my new pc after a while and tried installing numpy when suddenly this popped up:
" WARNING: The scripts f2py.exe and numpy-config.exe are installed in 'C:\Users\Theon\AppData\Local\Python\pythoncore-3.14-64\Scripts' which is not on PATH.
Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location."
Does anyone know how to fix this?
#f2py.exe and numpy-config.exe are not in PATH. What to do?

Hey! That's a super common issue when setting up a new environment. Here is how you can add that folder to your PATH:
- Locate your path: Find the folder path (usually
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\PythonXX\Scripts). - Open Environment Variables: Press
Win, type "env", and select Edit the system environment variables. - Edit Path: Click the Environment Variables button. Under User variables, select
Pathand click Edit. - Add Entry: Click New and paste your directory path.
- Save: Click OK on all windows to apply changes.
Verification
Open a new Command Prompt or PowerShell window and run:
pip --version
Note: You must restart any open terminal windows for the changes to take effect. If you installed Python via the official installer, you can also re-run the installer and select "Modify" to check the "Add to PATH" option automatically.
there ya go @paper kraken
thank you:)
any tips on how to find the path if its not C:\Users<User>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\PythonXX\Scripts?
No worries! The easiest way to find exactly where your Python is installed is to open your command prompt (cmd) and type:
where python
That will show you the path to your python.exe. Your Scripts folder will be in that same parent directory. Let me know if that helps you find it!
@dusty wharf sorry if im annoying you but it now shows this (I censored my name because idk if its dangerous to show lol) is this correct?
